Why No "Training Projects" for other professions?

They did it for Blacksmithing, they did it for cooking (basically. if you take an untrained to halfhil with 3 stacks of Golden Carp you can be 550 in 10 minutes while only spending like 30 gold on recipes and mats.
Tailoring could be the same with Windwool
Alchemy: Green Tea Leaves
Engineering: Ghost Iron Bolts (or just bars I guess)
Inscription: Green Tea Leaves (or the ink from them... idk)
Leatherworking: Exotic Leather
Jewelcrafting: Ghost Iron Ore (maybe you bring it to him in exchange for "some training" idk)
Enchanting: The entry level pandaria level Dust... (forget the name)
I just don't understand why they did it ONLY for Blacksmiths.

Because blacksmithing requires an obscene amount of mats - something like 3x as much ore as alchemy needs herbs. So the ghost iron option is just a way to make things easier through levels where non-Pandaria ore is hard to come by.

I agree that it takes a lot of mats but being able to fly everywhere makes it really easy. I just last month leveled my Warrior's BS from 1 - 600 in a couple days while I was leveling said warrior.
There were spots that were hard like 280 - 300. For some reason Thorium was being ultra-mega-farmed on my server and I had to go to Silithus in the middle of the night to get what I needed and yes, fel iron sucked a bit too but after that it was fairly easy.
IDK... I guess you're right but......

Because you dont read the patch notes. It was part of the
5.2 patch
and project Thunderforge.
New raid and PvP blacksmithing recipes have been added, and can be acquired through daily research of Lightning Steel Ingots.
Seasoned Blacksmiths will be able to find a way to create Lightning Steel Ingots once their realm has unlocked the Thunderforges on the Isle of Thunder. These ingots will allow blacksmiths to recreate powerful weapons from the past, updated for Mists of Pandaria. These power weapons will be bind-on-equip and making them will take a significant amount of dedication.
For blacksmiths who have lapsed in their trade (i.e., haven’t practiced blacksmithing since the Burning Crusade), there is a (not necessarily cost efficient) way to catch-up. Blacksmiths at your faction’s shrines in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms will be able to teach you training plans for crafting common household items using Ghost Iron Bar.

None of that actually explains why ONLY blacksmiths got it. Tailors got patterns in every patch too and the pats for them are equally insane yet no help for them. Or engineers or Leatherworkers ect. They expect me to go skin a thousand mobs in nagrand but the blacksmith gets to float on and just farm some ghost iron.
